ABSTRACT
Relevance of the study: The relevance of the study is conditioned by the pressing need to modernize methodological frameworks in physical education in response to the accelerating digital transformation of the educational landscape. The integration of classical and immersive instructional modalities contributes to the comprehensive formation of students' values of physical culture by aligning traditional motor learning with innovative technological engagement. Purpose: The purpose of the study is to empirically evaluate the pedagogical efficacy of classical, immersive, and hybrid instructional models in fostering the values of physical culture among students, using table tennis as a representative physical activity. Methods: The research employed a structured experimental design comprising the following stages: construction of an experimental learning environment; development of differentiated educational programs (classical, immersive, hybrid); implementation of these programs within controlled group settings; and subsequent empirical validation through comparative statistical analysis of performance outcomes. Results obtained: The study, conducted among 105 university students, revealed statistically significant improvements across all groups. The average performance score in the control group increased from 41.963 to 46.686 points (+11.252%), in the immersive group "A" 鈥� to 47.943 points (+14.248%), and in the hybrid group "B" 鈥� to 51.657 points (+23.099%). The hybrid instructional model demonstrated superior efficacy, outperforming the classical model by a factor of 2.1 and the immersive model by a factor of 1.6, particularly in metrics related to game dynamics and skill integration. Scientific novelty of the study: The scientific novelty lies in the experimental substantiation of a hybrid educational model that synthesizes classical and immersive methods, thereby generating a multidimensional pedagogical effect across technical, cognitive, and motivational domains. This model operationalizes an integrative approach to physical education that aligns with contemporary educational paradigms and learner engagement mechanisms. Prospects for future research: Future research should focus on longitudinal studies to assess the sustainability of the observed outcomes and to examine delayed or cumulative effects of hybrid instruction over time. Moreover, further empirical inquiry is warranted to explore the adaptability and effectiveness of the hybrid model across varied physical disciplines, educational levels, and demographic profiles.
